11. Ecological and evolutionary assembly processes and metacommunity structure
Abstract : This thesis aims to elucidate the link between abiotic and biotic effects and biogeographical contingencies, eco-evolutionary assembly processes, and community structure in a spatially explicit metacommunity framework. To this end, we used structure analysis of naturally sampled and experimentally manipulated marine bacterial communities and mathematical eco-evolutionary modeling and simulations of metacommunity assembly.

12. Bank-Industry Networks and Economic Evolution : An Institutional-Evolutionary Approach
Abstract : The links between institutions and economic evolution, especially between financial institutions and industrial innovation, are poorly understood. Having Schumpeter´s theory of economic evolution as starting point, this study gives an outline of an institutional-evolutionary theory of institutional change, innovation, and financial systems, based on learning-by-financing within bank-industry networks.

13. Rates and patterns of molecular evolution in avian genomes
Abstract : Evolution is the change in inherited characteristics of a population through subsequent generations. The interplay of several evolutionary mechanisms determines the rate at which this change occurs. READ MORE

14. Rates and patterns of genome evolution in Lepidoptera
Abstract : The evolutionary consequences of genome restructuring and chromosomal rearrangements can be significant, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. This thesis explores the relationships between genome restructuring, recombination, and maintenance of genetic diversity in different butterfly species. READ MORE

15. Speciation genetics of recently diverged species
Abstract : Species differentiation can be a consequence of evolutionary forces including natural selection and random genetic drift. Patterns of genomic differentiation vary across the tree of life. This variation seems to be dependent on, for example, differences in genomic architecture and molecular mechanisms. READ MORE
